Hello Aspirant!

First of all, 540 is indeed a good score. So I recommend you to try for government medical colleges first. If you belong to any of the reserved category then you will definitely get a seat in any of the top govtmedical  colleges of Karnataka.

If you are specific about private college then you can go for it. However, the fees will be very high for private colleges.

You can use college predictor and rank predictor tools to know which college you might get and what can be your approximate ranking.

All the best!

You haven't mentioned your Category and the State that you hold the domicile of. This is important because if you hold the domicile of Karnataka, you have decent chances of getting a GMC with this score. But if you do not hold the domicile of Karnataka, then you have chance in:

KIMS

Ramaiah

Vydehi Medical College

St. John's Medical College

Having said that, this is based on 2019 data and cut offs change every year.
